I am doing a survey on a monthly basis. I have one sheet for each day and one
sheet for the output data from each day. I want to know if there is a way for
me to have the "output sheet" update automaticly as I enter data on the "day
sheets" ?

And question number two: Is there a way to get a separate workbook to update
automaticly with the data I enter in other workbooks?

I'm not the most experienced Excel-user so any explanations/help posted
shoud be very step-by-step...

Would apreciate any help or hints of where I can find answer to these
questions!

See Excel's Help on "Create a link to another cell, workbook, or program"

You can link one cell to another in the same sheet, a different sheet or a
different workbook.

Note the info on "updating links" between workbooks.

Try This simple excercise and see if it does what you are asking..

In your cell type the equals symbol, then click on the cell on the page you
are asking for the total to be placed and then hit return.

vijay,

You need to use a worksheet event. Copy the code below, right-click the sheet tab, select "View
Code" and paste the code into the window that appears. The code will but the time into either
column A or B, and the date into E or F (not sure why you included G).

HTH,

Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count 1 Then Exit Sub
If Intersect(Target, Range("C:D")) Is Nothing Then Exit Sub
Application.EnableEvents = False
With Target(1, -1)
.Value = Time
.NumberFormat = "hh:mm"
End With
With Target(1, 3)
.Value = Date
.NumberFormat = "mm/dd/yy"
End With
Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub
